When Water Dragons mature, they lose the ability to survive on land, entering the water permanently. They are adept swimmers and eat whatever fish are in the lake they live in. They tend to inhabit the same lake for their entire lives, although a few live in the ocean and swim all over the world.

Dragons are highly-intelligent reptilian creatures that—from a human perspective, at least—appear to live forever. Many different varieties of dragon exist, each with their own unique qualities, habitats, and behavior. Adolescence in dragons is usually marked by the growth of a hatchling’s wings, although not all breeds of dragons grow wings and some breeds have other traits that indicate the beginning of maturation. In Galsreim, dragons and humans coexist peacefully.

Sunakii was abandoned as an egg with her brother, Sunakoo, near a small river in a very dry part of the world. When they hatched, they made it their goal to find more of their kind; they wandered for years, following the small river until they finally came upon the ocean, thriving where they met more of their kind. The two now swim the salty expanse, looking to save or help any abandoned eggs and hatchlings. Sunakii is very loving and kind to the small dragons and eggs, but deep down she holds a hatred for those that wish to abandon their children; she has been known to lash out at older dragons that have done this, and is constantly restrained by Sunakoo. She has never had young of her own because she spends so much time with the abandoned dragons and sees them as her children.
